Hypancistrus don't find chickens in nature. They eat invertebates, which are much easier to digest. I would never feed them with anything warmblooded.

Hypans are scavengers. I guess they eat everything that falls on the bottom of the river ?

Raw chicken is known to carry salmonella. Not a good idea.
If you are looking for meaty foods stick to frozen foods, chopped earthworm, shrimp, or shellfish.
